The causes of disappointment of fixed orthodontic preservation? * methodical evaluate as well as meta-analysis involving studies. 39 and 0.16, respectively). Airway obstruction and muscle mass were significantly associated with PEF ≤ 200 L/min. CONCLUSIONS Considering the EWGSOP-2 criteria as the reference standard, a cut-off of PEF ≤ 200 L/min showed only fair validity for detecting sarcopenia, so it cannot be recommended as a stand-alone screening tool in older rehabilitation patients with COPD.PURPOSE Fall-related injuries are a significant cause of morbidity, mortality and functional decline among older people. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/OSI-906.html The aim of this study is to analyze the incidence of fall-related emergency department (ED) visits and compare the characteristics of single and recurrent fallers in a population-based sample. METHODS Consecutive patients aged ≥ 80 years and living in the Tampere city region who visited collaborative emergency department within a two-year study period (1 January 2015 to 31 December 2016) due to fall-related injury were included. The incidence of fall-related injuries and recurrent falls was calculated using population statistics. RESULTS A total of 6915 ≥ 80-year-old patients visited our ED 17,769 times during the study period. Thirteen percent of these visits (n = 2347, median 87 years, 80-103 years; 74% female) were fall-related. The incidence of fall-related ED visits increased from 94/1000 person-years to 171/1000 among those aged 80-89 years and ≥ 90 years, respectively. Twenty-four percent of patients had recurrent falls (range 2-5) during the observational period. Twenty-five percent of those discharged home had a subsequent fall-related injury within one month after the index visit. The distribution of diagnoses was similar among those with single and recurrent falls. CONCLUSION Fall-related injuries are a significant health issue. Almost one in eight of all ED visits were fall-related, and 24% of patients had recurrent fall-related injuries. The risk of subsequent injury was high during the first month after the first injury, emphasizing the need to intervene with the fall risk promptly.PURPOSE Personality disorder (PD) assessment in older adults is challenging. In geriatric medicine, older adults with multi-morbidity are treated for their somatic, psychogeriatric, functional and social complaints and the presence of a PD can be a complicating factor in this treatment. Therefore, this study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of a PD screening instrument, the Gerontological Personality disorder Scale (GPS) in a Dutch geriatric medicine population. METHODS Using an informant-based personality questionnaire (HAP) as a reference criterion, the psychometric properties of the GPS-informant version were assessed in a sample of N = 160 (62 male) outpatients (mean age = 81.7). RESULTS The internal consistency of the GPS (total score), Cronbach's alpha, was α = 0.69. And the average inter-item correlation (total score) was 0.14. The test-retest reliability was rs = 0.68. The sensitivity and specificity for the GPS were 0.91 and 0.67, respectively. The GPS items showed predictive validity for PD status with 87.4% of predictions being accurate based on a logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSIONS This is the first psychometric study to use the GPS as an age-specific screening instrument for PDs in Dutch geriatric medicine outpatients. The GPS is an adequate screening tool for PDs in geriatric medicine, given the high sensitivity. The diagnostic accuracy of the GPS-informant version is fair to excellent.PURPOSE To find if there are differences in health, functional, nutritional and psychological status among residents with cognitive impairment (CI) depending on where they stay, in nursing homes (NH) or residential homes (RH), and depending on the level of CI. To find factors increasing the probability that the resident with CI stays in the NH compared to RH. DESIGN A cross-sectional survey of a country-representative sample of 23 LTCIs randomly selected from all six regions in Poland was conducted in 2015-2016. We included 455 residents with CI 214 recruited from 11 NHs and 241 from 12 RHs. Data were collected using the InterRAI-LTCF tool. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/OSI-906.html The descriptive analysis and logistic regression models were used. RESULTS The NH residents more frequently had worse functional and nutritional status, and psychotic symptoms than RH ones, while they did not differ significantly in health status, frequency of behavioral problems and aggression. More advanced CI was associated with higher presence of functional disability (ADL, bowel and bladder incontinence), nutritional decline (BMI, swallowing problems, aspiration, pressure ulcers) and psychological problems (aggression, resistance to care, agitation, hallucinations and delusions). Nevertheless, the level of CI severity did not increase the chance to stay in NH compared to RH, but ADL dependency did (OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.31-1.76). CONCLUSION The level of CI is significantly associated with physical, psychological and nutritional functioning of residents and thus may have an impact on care needs. Therefore, it is very important to use CI assessments while referring to NH or RH, to ensure that patients with CI are placed in an appropriate facility, where they may receive optimal care.PURPOSE In response to the growing recognition of geriatric rehabilitation and to support healthcare providers which need strategies to support older people with frailty who have experienced functional decline, we developed a consensus statement about core principles and future priorities for geriatric rehabilitation. METHODS We used a three-stage approach to establish consensus-preparation, consensus and review. RESULTS The consensus statement is grouped under 11 headings from (1) "Definition of GR" to (11) "Effective strategies to develop GR in Europe", which define geriatric rehabilitation in a way that is compatible with existing service models across Europe. Additionally future goals around research and education are highlighted. CONCLUSION The definitions of the consensus statement can provide a starting point for those wishing to further develop geriatric rehabilitation in their jurisdiction and help to develop strategic alliances with other specialties, serving as a basis for a pan-European approach to geriatric rehabilitation.
